Amid rising tensions, Bangladesh has urgently recalled its acting Deputy High Commissioner in Kolkata, Shikdar Mohammad Ashraful Rahman, and Assistant High Commissioner in Agartala, Arif Mohammad. Protests in West Bengal and Tripura over the arrest of Hindu monk Chinmoy Krishna Das Prabhu in Bangladesh and attacks on minorities escalated the situation. A security breach at Bangladesh’s Agartala mission saw protesters vandalizing the flagpole and desecrating the national flag. Diplomatic sources confirmed the diplomats are to work from Dhaka until further notice. Bangladesh's Foreign Ministry condemned the breach, calling it a pre-planned act, criticizing local law enforcement.
